Albina Press

"Whether Portland newcomers or coffee newbies would know it, this quiet neighborhood coffee shop on its namesake avenue was a significant bastion of barista excellence during the height of the third wave. It has been home to major players within the Portland coffee scene, from Barista owner Billy Wilson and Coava CEO Matt Higgins. These days, it’s a lovely, warm spot to order a toasty, nutty latte and sit out on a picnic table. Albina Press serves Coava coffee as espresso, cold brew, and French press." - Eater Staff

"Open at 6 a.m. every day, Albina Press is for the early risers who are looking to get some work done while the sun is still coming up. Most chairs at this cafe have a back to them, making it comfortable to sit for a while, though most tables only fit two of three. For a non-coffee option, try the chai latte." - Rebecca Roland, Asia Alvarez

"A creaky screen door, oversize leather couches, and worn wooden floors give Albina Press a rustic, cabin-like vibe—all the better to cozy up over a drink and a laptop. This place is great for hanging out, studying, reading, and working, a cup of top-notch coffee in-hand. There are outdoor seats, too, which makes it ideal for a sunny day. The crowd here is diverse, but everyone's united in their appreciation for the excellent espresso drinks (made with Coava beans) and the French press coffee (made by the cup)." - Hannah Wallace
